91. to #89 and all people who don't punctuate
Susan ,   Kfar Saba   (04.18.08)
I assume that the reason you write is so that people will read what you have to say. It is too difficult to read all caps and I'm not willing to work that hard. You are too lazy to use the shift button. If you want people to read your talkbacks, you have to use capital letters and punctuation correctly.
92. "extreme military capability"
Rick & TC ,   Israel   (04.18.08)
Is he insane? Will he go meet with Bin Ladin?
93. Inconceivable
Michael ,   Oxford UK   (04.18.08)
It seems inconceivable to me that a group of people who allegedly suffered from the hands of the Nazis could possibly start emulating them. Gaza has been turned into a huge concentration camp ghetto and daily incursions by the IDF in order to continue the slow genocide is totally unacceptable. I see nothing but arrogance from Israel and indeed the comments made on this talk back. Eventually there will be a price to pay for these contraventions of International Law and the Geneva Convention.

What are you? Some kind of idiot! If you read this news website how is it you have learned nothing about the people of Israel? You accuse us of emulating Nazis and of turning Gaza into a concentration camp. Who are they emulating? Who have they been emulating since 1948? Who was the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem allied to in the Second World War? Nazis. Maybe you should write to Hamas and ask them why they want to destroy Israel? It's not that they are merely fighting against us because we have a policy of non recognition against Palestinians. We have no such policy. We have invited them every day since 1948 to live in peace with us. But every day since 1948 their people have practiced warfare and terrorism against us. How did you miss all of this? Study some. We have no option but to besiege them. We are also beseeching them. The only other strategy at our disposal is a violent strategy and we like to resewrve that for their gunmen and rocket men. Hopefully the siege will compel them to think more conscientiously about why it is happening. THEY HAVE TO ABANDON THEIR PLANS TO SEEK OUR DESTRUCTION. There now I have written it in bold letters for you. Go visit Auschwitz. That's a real concentration camp. Gaza is a terrorist training camp.
97. Another Global Elite Nut Case!!!
Ken Quinn ,   Amsterdam   (04.18.08)
98. Anciently, the tribe of DAN was given the area of Gaza,
Rivkah   (04.18.08)
Askkelon, Ekron, and Ashdod which was ancient Philistia. The ancient Philistines were so fierce, Joshua gave the tribe of DAN another location near the Golan Heights as an inheritance. Philistia remained the perpetual enemy of ancient Israel and the Jews. My, how things don't change. Zephaniah the Bible Prophet says God is going to weary of the Philistines attacking Israel and will destroy them on the coasts of Canaan (ancient Philistia). There is another Philistine/Hebrew battle ground in the world. Anciently, the Prophet Jeremiah took Princess Tia Tephe to Northern Ireland to establishthe throne of Judah there when Judah in the Middle East was about to be taken captive. Philistines settled in Southern Ireland. So, the Protestant/Catholic conflict in Northern Ireland is actually a Philistine/Judean conflict. Those two people CANNOT get a long genetically in the same geographic area. The migration of Philistines and Jews anciently shows that can be done, but not successfully if they migrate to areas in close proximity to each other. A successful resolution of the Israeli/Palestinian situation in the Middle East can only be accomplished by removing the Palestinians to lands where there are few or no Jews that are Muslim. Dividing Jerusalem and the failure to mass transplant the Palestinians elsewhere will lead to Armageddon. The Prophet Joel said the dividing of God's land will lead to a war that can be none other than Armageddon. The root cause if dividing God's land which is Jerusalem primarily although God owns the whole earth.
99. what a complete idiot!
eddie ,   london UK   (04.18.08)
This idiot ex-president, who brought Khomeini to Iran, now wants the same in GAza. Oh, why is there a blockade on gaza? ANd why are they smuggling arms? They ar eresponsible for their own fate. If they want food, they can put down their arms.

"It seems inconceivable to me that a group of people who allegedly suffered from the hands of the Nazis could possibly start emulating them." Allegedly? I think there's plenty of proof. Emulating the Nazis, how? Providing them with fuel, electrcity, money, employment, medial care - all during their war against Israel. By the way, genocide would entail a depletion in population. The "Palestinian" genocide is the one where the population grows. "Eventually there will be a price to pay for these contraventions of International Law and the Geneva Convention." Britain is the country that built concentration camps in Africa, murdering hundreds of thousands of innocent people who merely wanted independence. Israel is not as bad as Nazi Germany or Nazi Britain, hypocrite.
101. How does Carter think that Hamas would act...
Kev ,   London   (04.18.08)

104. Not sure who's the "stupid man"
Michael ,   Oxford UK   (04.18.08)
Don't you think "Kev" that if the USA routinely killed Mexicans and stole their territory that it would produce a reaction called resistance?
105. Carter
HS ,   USA   (04.18.08)
Carter was so smart, when US SOIL was attacked, he hid in the Rose Garden and did nothing when our embassy was invaded.
106. How about the Iranian people then? Mr. President
Zarebin ,   London, UK   (04.18.08)

Yaron ,   USA   (04.18.08)
While your response was well written and most likely well-intentioned, it is so flawed with mis-information that I won't even bother responding to each point individually. I will say that until the Arabs choose to be liberated from their unfortunate revulsion to a thriving successful Israel in their midst, the rest of the ancilary issues are simply the means to the ends of the general arab desire to eliminate the jews from the "holy" middele-east. The arab position has not changed since 1948 and continues to be as beligerent as ever. Until there are true peace-seekers on the Arab side, who command more than a village and a couple of loyal body guards, peace will continue to elude us. As long as Hiz, Hamas, and the like can torpedo discussions we will resort to their least common denominator of death and destruction. Ahmed, you sound like an educated and reasonable individual but how can you NOT see what is in plain sight!
111. #28 Achmad in .......LONDON

enjoy freedom of speech? enjoy living in the UK? I shall enjoy my freedom as well listen up there is no palastine it is Israel it always was it always will be the land belongs to the Israelites not to any imposters, squatters, or thieves It is holy land, with Hashems city in its midst. it is not and never will be dar al islam btw. i am not a jew, or an "israeli" but I stand for truth and the legitimate inheritor, and not the usurper who follows a death cult
112. Israel should charge them fee of Double Shaheed
observer   (04.18.08)
to die from starvation is "Shehadah". to die in the same time for a just cause is another "Shehadah". The total will be 144 virgins/capita plus delivery expenses.
113. what a load of excellent talkbacks

Abir ,   Chicago, IL   (04.18.08)
An attempt at "cheap" populism. Irrelevant words from one who is irrelevant.

Jews emulating the Nazis? Gaza, a concentration camp ghetto? Genocide? If this is the best argument that our opponents can come up with, then I guess we're in pretty good shape. These comparisons are so silly, I feel embarassed to take the time to refute them. But still, just to prove how stupid you are: "Ghettos": During the holocaust, Jews who were successful, remarkable citizens of European countries, were forcefully taken out of their homes, their property was pillaged, and they were stuffed into ghettos, in order to isolate them. The Palestinians were never Israeli citizens, they were not forced into Gaza, rather, this is their home. Israel withdrew from there three years ago, in the hope the Palis there would forget about war, and concentrate on prosperity. The complete opposite happened. "Genocide": Genocide is a word describing the systemic, indiscriminant, massive killing of an entire people, so as to eradicate them completely. As was done in the Holocaust, and in Rwanda. Has Israel ever done anything remotely like this, to the Palestinians? Never, ever. Israel only wanted to part ways, and have peace with the Palestinians, never to kill all of them! If we wanted to do so, we could have carpetbombed all of Gaza long ago. Also bear in mind, that a high percentage of the dead Palestinians, are actually armed militants, something that cannot be said about the Jews who perished in the Holocaust. Furthermore, would a country interested in "genocide", be supplying its alleged victims with water, electricity, and food? And another question: did European Jews of the 1940s, fire rockets, or carry suicide attacks against the Germans? Have German Jews, not recognized the right of Germany to exist, and wished to throw the Germans to the sea? Now that this stupidity is refuted, I'm ready to tackle the next fool who would try and make another popular, stupid comparison, of Israel's actions, with Apartheid....
117. #93 Typical Antisemitic Talk from Oxford
Liliane ,   Brighton, UK   (04.18.08)
#93 The typical antisemitic garbage coming from Oxford comparing Gaza to the Warsaw Ghetto and how cruel the Jews are. When rockets are fired at Oxford we will see your reaction. You are a liar. Instead of spending money on rockets they should spend their money on jobs and food.
118. Ah yes, worst president ever, isn't he?
Zeal ,   Zionist America   (04.18.08)
Ready for another war with Egypt guys?
119. #111, Jack Bauer
(04.18.08)
You said: ((listen up there is no palastine it is Israel)) That's funny, because, well, a certain somebody by the name Theodore Herzl: "I wish to be buried in the vault beside my father, and to lie there till the Jewish people shall take my remains to Palestine." Do you have any idea why Mr. Herzl referred the holy land to "Palestine" in this quotation and in Der Judenstaat and not "Israel" if, as you say, it was always Israel? ((but I stand for truth and the legitimate inheritor)) yeaah... right... you little self-righteous imbecile.
120. #1 sounds like one right always right
